Chapter 33 Misunderstanding



Shi Li felt that he was a bit unlucky today.

He fell down last night. Although he was not seriously injured, he was injured after all. He was in a very bad condition today. As a result, he was bitten by an insect on the heel just after leaving the tribe with the hunting team.

His heel became swollen, painful and itchy, and he couldn't even walk. But the people who were hunting with him didn't care at all. Xiong He even said calmly that the wounds from insect bites would heal in a few days.

He knew that the bites from these insects would heal in a few days, but he was feeling very uncomfortable now!

If Xiong Ye were here, he would definitely carry him on his back and find herbs for him... Shi Li's heart sank when he thought of this.

He used to think it was embarrassing for Kumano to carry him on his back, but now, he’s afraid that Kumano will no longer carry him on his back.

It’s all that damn Zhou Ji’s fault!

Shi Li wanted to quit at this time, but many people in the tribe had opinions about him, and he had to deal with them.

Taking a deep breath, Shi Li endured the discomfort in his feet and walked forward with one step deep and one step shallow. After walking for a while, he suddenly realized that something was wrong - why were there so many messy bugs around him?

I don’t know when, but there were a lot of bugs on Shi Li’s body. These bugs included reptiles and flying insects, of many kinds, and they couldn’t be driven away.

Shi Li was going crazy, especially when there was not a single bug on the people around him.

After sprinkling some powder that attracts insects on Shi Li, in order to prevent the people in the tribe from being affected, Zhou Ji also sprinkled some powder that can repel insects on them.

Now, the only one who suffers is Shi Li.

At this point, Shi Li also realized that something was wrong, but he didn't expect that he was being ambushed. He just thought that he was unlucky, had provoked something, or accidentally stepped on a plant that he shouldn't have stepped on.

He didn't think anyone could plot against him without anyone noticing.

The people in the tribe all thought so: "Shi Li, did you come across pollen that attracts insects?"

"Did you step on any special plants when you left the tribe?"

"It could be that some bug left some smell on you..."

The people in the tribe looked at Shi Li with sympathy and gave him some advice: "Find a place to take a bath, and it should be fine."

If Shi Li could find a place to take a bath, he would indeed feel better, but unfortunately, there was no river where they were hunting today!

Later, even though Shi Li was on guard, some messy insects still rushed towards him enthusiastically. When they finally saw a river, they saw a group of crocodiles lying by the river.

The reason Kumano was able to catch a crocodile before was because it was alone and small, but the crocodile they saw today...

Dozens of crocodiles that are several meters long and can swallow a person in one bite gathered together and filled a river. At this time, only the stupid and thirsty dinosaurs would go to the river!

The people in the tribe turned around and left.

Even though Shi Li wanted to take a shower very much, he gave up his plan without hesitation - being bitten by a bug is better than being bitten by a crocodile!

In places with little water, the occasional water source will become a base for predators.

There were crocodiles in the water at this source, and there were also many carnivorous dinosaurs lurking around, so the people in the tribe changed the place to hunt.

However, they did not catch any prey, only some small guys weighing only ten pounds.

"It's getting late, let's go back." Xiong He suggested. If they went on, they might not catch anything. But on the way back, if they were lucky, they might come across some prey.

Shi Li certainly had no objection. He now had dozens of insect bites all over his body and couldn't wait to go back and take a shower and apply some herbal medicine.

What happened last night dealt a great blow to Shi Li. At the beginning of today, he had been thinking about Xiong Ye, but after being bitten by so many bugs, he no longer had time to think about it and just wanted to get rid of these bugs.

As a result, at this moment, a huge insect pounced towards him...

"Arch-breasted centipede!" Xiong He looked at the giant millipede with some surprise: "Kill it quickly! The meat of this armch-breasted centipede is delicious, and its outer shell can be exchanged for salt!" The outer shell of the armch-breasted centipede is very hard, and it is a good material for making weapons and some tools! The knife he used to cut the meat was made from the shell of the centipede!

However, they usually don't encounter this kind of centipede, and if they do, they may come in a group. Not only are they difficult to deal with, but they also crawl very fast and they can't catch up!

Now a single centipede was attracted by Shi Li. Xiong He was extremely surprised and immediately changed into a beast form and pounced on it. Others in the hunting team followed suit.

The centipede eventually died under the siege of the tribesmen.

"The shell here is flattened, what a pity." Xiong He sighed as he touched the corpse of the centipede, and then looked at Shi Li: "Shi Li, you are a hero this time, I will definitely give you an extra piece of meat!"

Although Shi Li did not take action, this centipede was attracted by Shi Li!

Thinking of this, the happy Xiong He even wanted to pat Shi Li on the shoulder.

However, before he could pat it down, he saw the bug on Shi Li's shoulder.

Xiong He silently withdrew his hand. He didn't know what was on Shi Li's body, so he decided not to take pictures of Shi Li.

Shi Li: “…”

When Shi Li and his group were walking towards the tribe with a centipede, Xiong Ye had already returned to the tribe.

Kumano's luck was still good today. He and his partners caught two dinosaurs and a few small dinosaurs.

If they had stayed outside a little longer, they might have caught more, but Kumano wanted to go back early as he was thinking about tomorrow's mate ceremony, so they returned early - the prey they caught today was not a small number.

The group quickly returned to the tribe, and then Xiongye called out, "Zhou Ji!" There was a lot of blood on his body today, and he wanted to call Zhou Ji to take a shower and wash his hair with him.

"Brother Kumano, Zhou Ji is out!" said Mao Jin, who was in charge of guarding the door.

"Where did he go? Did he go out with the collection team?" asked Kumano.

Mao Jin said: "No, he went out alone. I don't know where he went."

Xiong Ye knew that Zhou Ji liked to be alone, so he felt helpless when he heard this: "Okay, I'll go look for him."

Zhou Ji wouldn’t go far, he should be nearby.

Xiong Ye left the tribe and went to where the gathering team was first: "Have you seen Zhou Ji?"

The members of the collection team shook their heads: "No."

The head of the collection team also said: "He is not with us, how can we possibly see him?"

The head of the collection team clearly had something against Zhou Ji. Xiong Ye sighed secretly and planned to talk to Zhou Ji again in the evening and ask him to get along well with the people in the tribe.

In a tribe, if a person keeps to himself, he will suffer.

Since Zhou Ji was not here, Xiong Ye changed places to look for him. As a result, he ran around the tribe and couldn't smell Zhou Ji.

Where did Zhou Ji go? Did he run away?

Kumano became worried, but fortunately at this moment he smelled Zhou Ji's scent.

Xiongye immediately ran towards the place where Zhou Ji's smell came from, and then saw Zhou Ji standing under a tree, fiddling with some leaves.

"Zhou Ji!" Xiong Ye called out, "What are you doing?"

After running for a long time, the "clothes" made of leaves on my body got damaged. I planned to make a new one, but found that Xiong Ye was here. Finally, Zhou Ji arranged this scene: "I accidentally tore my clothes today. I want to use this leaf to make clothes."

After Zhou Ji said this, Xiong Ye noticed that the animal skin clothes that always covered him tightly were gone, and he only had a large vine leaf tied around his waist, serving as an animal skin skirt.

It was the first time that Xiong Ye took a close look at Zhou Ji’s body, and he discovered that Zhou Ji’s body was as white as his face.

Not only that... Zhou Ji actually has muscles!

Zhou Ji is so good looking! Kumano sighed, and thought it was not surprising that Zhou Ji had grown muscles - Zhou Ji actually had good physical strength, but it was a pity that he had not awakened into a beast form, so he was weaker than others.

What a pity... Xiong Ye felt a little sympathetic towards Zhou Ji, and then he noticed some small wounds on Zhou Ji's arms and legs, and was immediately shocked: "Are you injured?"

He walked towards Zhou Ji anxiously, picked up Zhou Ji's hand to look at it, and then saw dozens of fine wounds on Zhou Ji's arm, which were particularly conspicuous on his fair skin.

Speaking of which…why did he feel like Zhou Ji seemed to have turned white again?

Xiong Ye quickly put the thought of "Zhou Ji turned pale again" behind his mind, and his mind was all on the wounds: "Did you run far away? How come you are still injured?"

"I didn't run far, I was just unlucky and encountered some plants with sharp leaves and got cut." Zhou Ji said.

Xiong Ye had no doubts. The wounds were small and looked like they were indeed scratched by leaves. "You must be more careful next time. Your skin is so thin!"

Zhou Ji agreed with a smile.

His skin is actually very thick, especially after he turned into a beast. He was not scratched by plant leaves, but by those huge millipedes.

It was just that after he shrank into human form, the huge wound on the elephant's leg became smaller accordingly.

By the way, his beast-shaped mammoth is a bit ugly, but it is quite useful...

"I'll give you some medicine when we get back." said Kumano.

Zhou Ji nodded. He liked Xiong Ye’s concern for him. Unfortunately, the gift he originally intended to give to Kumano was accidentally eaten by himself.

Zhou Ji sighed secretly, and then suddenly realized that something was wrong...

After he ate the fruit, he started to run for his life at a high speed. While he was running away, he was always using the energy in his body to repair his wounds and restore his superpowers and mental strength.

At that time, he felt that the energy in his body seemed inexhaustible, but now that he had stopped and was not using this energy anymore...

His supernatural powers and mental strength have been restored and he no longer needs to consume energy. However, there is too much energy in his body, a little too much, and it is running rampant in his body!

Zhou Ji opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Xiong Ye was looking at the wound on Zhou Ji's leg with concern when the blood poured on his head.

"Zhou Ji, what's wrong with you?" Xiong Ye was startled: "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Zhou Ji said, closed his eyes, gathered all his mental strength into his body, and began to absorb the energy in his body.

This energy is too overbearing. If he cannot absorb it, his body will be damaged by it!

Things like natural treasures are not easy to obtain.

At this time, Zhou Ji was somewhat glad that it was not Kumano who ate the fruit.

Although he looks very weak, he is very clear that his body is actually much stronger than Kumano's. If it were Kumano at this moment, he would probably vomit blood continuously.

It is always more difficult for him to use his mental power to help Kumano absorb energy than to use his mental power to help himself absorb energy.

Zhou Ji no longer cared about anything else and absorbed the energy with his whole body and soul.

Xiong Ye was extremely anxious at this time. Although Zhou Ji said that he was "fine", he had been motionless with his eyes closed... Could it be that Zhou Ji had suffered internal injuries? Otherwise, why would he suddenly vomit blood?

At this point, how could Kumano have time to check the small wounds on Zhou Ji's arms and legs? He picked up Zhou Ji and ran towards the tribe.

Xiongye was very fast. After a while, he carried Zhou Ji back to the tribe and went straight to the priest's cave.

The people in the tribe who were on the same hunting team as him were processing the prey. When they saw Xiong Ye coming back with Zhou Ji like this, they were a little surprised: "What happened to Zhou Ji?"

"Why did Xiong Ye bring Zhou Ji back?"

"Is Zhou Ji injured?"

"Zhou Ji is fine, where is he injured?"

At first, everyone suspected that Zhou Ji was injured. At this time, someone suddenly said, "When they came over just now, I smelled blood and Zhou Ji's smell on Xiong Ye." The smell of Zhou Ji on Xiong Ye was quite strong, and even the smell of blood could not cover it up!

People in the tribe: "..."

Almost all the people in the tribe have awakened their beast forms. Some of them have very good noses, some have very good eyesight, and now...

“Are Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji in the wild… ahem!”

"It should be. Xiong Ye smells like Zhou Ji."

"Zhou Ji has some minor injuries on his legs and arms. They were scratched by grass leaves when he was on the ground, right?"

"Zhou Ji wraps himself in animal skins every day, but today he only has a leaf on him..."

"His clothes were torn by Kumano?"

The people in the tribe almost immediately confirmed one thing—Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji must be having sex outside.

Mostly very intense.

Otherwise, how could they be like this?

As for Zhou Ji being brought back by Xiong Ye... Xiong Ye is so strong, maybe he accidentally hurt Zhou Ji...

As they were discussing this, a woman said with a hint of envy: "I wonder what it feels like to be with Kumano...it should be very comfortable?"

Immediately, a man said, "Actually, I'm very good! Do you want to try it with me?"

The people in the tribe smiled and went back to their work.

It was at this time that Xiong He's team, who had caught the centipede, returned.

Seeing the good harvest in the tribe, Xionghe was very happy: "You caught a lot of prey... Where's Xiongye?"

When Xiong He asked about Xiong Ye, someone immediately said, "Chief, Xiong Ye injured Zhou Ji, and he took Zhou Ji to the priest." When the man said this, he also winked and made eyes, and it was clear what he meant.

Not to mention that the people around started to make a fuss and described the previous scene in vivid detail.

Shi Li, who had returned to the tribe and put down his things before going to take a shower, heard everything clearly and was immediately struck by lightning: "What did you say?"

The author has something to say:

It is really hard to tell the difference between millipedes and centipedes. Scientists also confused the two at first. The prehistoric giant called the arthropod is actually a millipede...
